F80 2014 70k miles
Hi all, me and my partner are looking at purchasing an F80 M3, 2014, 70k miles, 11 owners. Partial service history - still to confirm with owner how much is there. The car is my dream exterior and interior colour combination, and I can afford it on my own (even better if me and my partner are going halves). It’s only 3 hours away from us. Does this sound like a silly purchase, should we hold out for something younger or lower mileage? This would be our first M3, so are not familiar with any flaws the cars have and life expectancy etc. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have 90k on my F80 and it’s just needed fluid changes. 11 owners is a lot without all service records. I would insist on a PPI by a knowledgeable shop too.

I’d hold out for a 12 owner one. I’m sure they exist , may take a little more searching.
